Greenville Vindicator: “The sad
announcement was made in Green,
ville last Tuesday that Mr. J. W. Y.
Brown, of the Cove, bad received such
injuries in a gin that his right arm
had to be amputated. This accidentia
especially unfortunate as Mr. Brown

who had his arm badly torn to pieces
in the same gin.” ^
“Leaf by leaf the roses fall.” On
Thursday W. T. Christopher, the
handswme bachelor editor of the
Montezuma Record, was married.
Christopher was a bright man intel¬
lectually and an able editor; a pleas¬
ant, genial companion and had al¬
ways seemed to be honest, upright
and prudent. It is therefore with
great misgiving and sorrow that we
see him throwing bis life away in the
attempt to solve the unanswerable
riddle “Is marriage a failure?” He
ought to have known better.

A USEFUL SNAKE.
Man’s First and Oldest Enemy be¬
comes His Valuable Ally.
We sauntered into Judge Ham¬
mond’s office on thanksgiving morn¬
ing to wait for our mail and to take
our morning smoke, and found the
Judge in a happy mood and very
thafciiul for the many blessings
which the country now enjoys,
though somewhat inclined to be dis¬
satisfied With the result of his last
venture in the Louisiana Lottery.
Be consoled himself, however, with
the idea that we cannot always have
everthing just exactly like we wish it
to be, and that he could do good in
othgr ways, besides drawing the cap¬
ital prize in the Lottery, and be pro¬
ceeded to give us the following les¬
son:
“ Young man, if at first, you don’t
succeed try, try, again. Your small
creators nave wtutea inw long; jusu
turn your house shoes the other way,
to change your luck, and let them
wait again. It will teach them the
excellent lesson of Patience, if they
will only wait till you draw the
prize.
“But let me say that white I did not
get the capital prize, yet I fed thank¬
ful all the same. 1 have always been
fond of rawing fine chickens, and my
success has always been enjoyed by

the whole sitting of eggs just on the

that determination which reflects
credit on her patience and her faith,
still continued to sit, and wait for
the chirp of the little ones which she
bad warmed into life. Bnt the chirp
‘Which she longed lb* never came.’
“A few days after this I was down
in the field and was surprised to hear
me little chickens crying and be-

the little chickens running toward

It is certainly a happy sight to see

weeds and take hold of one with her
mouth, and wrap her tail around

get on her back, white the old snake
swings back and forth and whistles
ktele she swings that old familiar
tune “Rock abye baby in the tree

neighbors frequently come in to see
the old snake swing her brood upon
her back while she sings that sweet
old lullaby^wblch carries Us back to
our mother’s knee when she sang us
to sleep with the same old song.
“Next year, of course, I will en¬
deavor to profit by this accidental
discovery. I shaU raise chicken
snakes, and when I set myhens.Iwil!
turn my snakes into the nests at the
end of the nineteenth day and tet the
snakes swallow the eggs, and the
process of incubation will be complet¬

the old hen can be put to laying
more eggs, and not lose ber time in
raising the chickens, and the snakes
will nurse the yovmg broods with
tender motherly care, and no prowl,
ing chicken thief will molest or make
them afraid.”
